Small-scale distributions in an indoor environment at 94GHz

Abstract

[EN] In this paper, an extensive multiple-input multiple-output measurement campaign in a lab environment has been conducted at the 94GHz band. Using a vector network analyzer, updown converters, and omnidirectional antennas displaced in virtual arrays, we have obtained an estimation of the distribution parameters for the most usual distributions employed in the small-scale fading modeling, i.e., Rayleigh, Rice, Nakagami-m and -, by using statistical inference techniques. Moreover, in this scenario the best fit distribution to the experimental data is the Weibull distribution, using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. However, the - distribution provides the best fitting to the experimental results in terms of the lower tails of the distributions.
